New TV TecStyle Visions team

TV TecStyle Visions takes place for the 9th time on the grounds of Messe Stuttgart from February 4th to 6th 2016. During this period, the event will stand out due to its extensive supporting programme. Exhibitors show great interest in the “Style at Work Discovery Tour” at this early stage.

After almost eight years at Messe Stuttgart and as part of the TV TecStyle Visions team, Christin Franz took her two-year parental leave at the beginning of April. Alongside project manager Nima Yusufi (gmk Veranstaltungsservice), her successor Nicole Dalkolmo will now be organizing the international trade fair for textile decoration and promotion.

“The collaboration with the exhibitors and the whole trade fair team was a great pleasure for me,” said project manager Christin Franz and added: “I would like to take this opportunity to thank all partners for the pleasant cooperation throughout the past few years“. Her successor, Nicole Dalkolmo, is a business economist and Senior Project Manager of Messe Stuttgart, where she has already been responsible for the organisation and marketing of various events, lately for the CMT trade fair for tourism and leisure.20140213_Expobeutel_0049

Bringing people and markets together

Dalkolmo: “The business objective of Messe Stuttgart is a very nice one: Bringing people and markets together. Together with the team of gmk, I want to win over exhibitors for the TV TecStyle Visions, whose products and services are matching our visitors. The show is an emerging event in a very interesting market with exciting products. There is a lot going on and this is exactly what I like about it. This is why I decided to take the position as a project manager of this event“. The signs of TV TecStyle Visions, which is held as part of the trade show quartet EXPO 4.0 since 2012, are meanwhile pointing to growth. More than 90% of the exhibition space are already sold out by now. The two project managers Yusufi and Dalkolmo are expecting the rest to be “sold out” soon. More than 200 exhibitors and dealers of textiles, machines and materials for textile decoration have already confirmed their participation in the fair. More then 600 exhibitors and more than 16,000 visitors are expected for the upcoming EXPO 4.0.20140213_Messebesucher_0293

Focus on Workwear

Since its beginning, TV TecStyle Visions has an extensive and target-specific supporting programme. The presentation and awarding of the Golden Shirt Award, the TV technical forum, the fashion show, the special show “fair • eco • bio” on sustainability and the screen printing forum “Charlie’s Corner” usually turn out to be real crowd pullers.  There is also great demand among the exhibitors for “Style at Work”, which will be held at the upcoming TV trade fair as a “Discovery Tour”. Decorated Workwear and Corporate Fashion are rising branches of the textile and decorating sector. With the “Style at Work Discovery Tour“, trade fair organizers bring interested visitors directly to the right providers of  Workwear and Corporate Fashion. Among the already registered participants are Workwear specialists such as AREM Italia, Carson Company, Gustav Daiber, Hakro, Lomestar, Premier Clothing, Promodoro Fashion and Snap Sportswear.
